If you were to ask Luis, he would say that Nickie made the first move but that's not exactly what really happened... Luis was a Parts Specialist working the front counter when Nickie started working right across as a Receptionist at BMW of Alexandria in Winter of 2011. They actually didn't notice each other for the first couple months and didn't have much contact & then begun the G-chat messages and the flirtatious giggles and stares, their sparks were undeniable as fellow coworkers started to inquire about their relationship status. Luis was leaving for vacation and stopped by Nickie's desk & then asked for her number & then lost it. Then he came back & tricked Nickie into texting him so he would have her number again (which she just recently found out about this..). Then began the first dates which included The Washington Auto Show, Go-Cart racing, Korean BBQ, Arlington Drafthouse and trips to various parks together.

After a year of dropping subtle hints, saving Brilliant Earth links to Luis' phone, & a smart remark with anything wedding related, The day finally came. April invited Nickie out to Happy Hour on a random Tuesday. After being filled with margaritas, queso, & empanadas, they went back to the couple's first home together. Upon arrival, there was vibrant red heart balloons with photographs attached with a trail of rose petals leading to the backyard. Each balloon included photographs creating a timeline starting from 5 years ago to the most recent. As Nickie approached the backyard, there stood Luis, Bella, & Goku with a sign hanging from his neck " Mom, Say Yes to Dad!".... Then Luis began to say the sweetest words & then proceeded to kneel on the ground...
